My childs grandmother (fathers mom) is trying to get me to sign it over to her so she can pay her personal debts. Do I need a lawyer or does probate court handle itself??
You will need to go through probate as guardian of your son. The father's estate should not be used to pay his mother's personal debts. You should hire an attorney who will agree to be paid out of the estate.
You do not need a license to purchase and sell homes that you own in Missouri.
You should get your own survey done, based on the deed on file in your family's name at the Recorders office.
You should have a surveyor prepare the new legal descriptions of both properties. Then a deed needs to be prepared transferring the parcel being transferred. A lawyer can do that. But start with a surveyor.
